Welcoming graduates from across the Arab world, from Mauritania to Oman, Sheikh Sultan praised their artistic and academic achievements and acknowledged the unwavering support of the academy's staff.

He also announced the launch of a new College of Music starting this September, affirming Sharjah's continued commitment to nurturing talent from the region.

Sheikh Sultan also unveiled plans to establish a new filmmaking programme, which will mark the completion of the academy's three-pillar focus: Theatre, Music and Cinema.

He said the development of such initiatives reflects Sharjah’s mission to uplift creative communities and offer transformative learning opportunities.

"This knowledge is one that can correct many errors, whether in individuals or nations," he said.

"We proceed with calm, measured steps. We do not set foot where there is error; we strive to correct it through the people who carry knowledge and must uphold it."

He congratulated the graduates and their families on this milestone.
